To fulfill the association’s mission of advancing roadway safety and better serve our members, ATSSA has developed a state government relations programs that looks to involve local ATSSA chapters in state-level grassroots efforts.

ATSSA’s Director of State Government Relations Ashley Wieland works across the country with our active chapters to host state advocacy days, meeting with elected officials, and pushing for policies that invest in roadway safety infrastructure and make our roads safer.

Strategic Highway Safety Plans (SHSP) are a state-level safety plan designed by state departments of transportation to outline and address a state’s roadway safety needs. The plan is designed to provide guidance on investments and actions that eliminate serious injuries and fatalities on our nation’s roadways.

ATSSA chapters are encouraged to become involved in the SHSP planning process as part of the association’s state-level grassroots efforts. To get involved, contact the ATSSA Government Relations team at govrelations@atssa.com.
